Well done to everyone who took part in our recent Intro to Whitewater beginners course in collaboration with Waterford Sports Partnership.

The course consisted of 3 lake sessions focused on the fundamentals of kayaking and learning the basic skills needed for running our local whitewater rivers. Huge amount of learning involved and the group brought great enthusiasm and excelled on our trip to the Suir in Clonmel.

Many thanks to all our coaches and to for their help organising.
